The United Nation Global Compact’s Ten Principles are derived from a series of other ethical codes and are focused very specifically on the behavior of companies. In your paper respond to the following question:
How would you evaluate the efficacy of the Ten Principles in addressing emerging ethical global challenges?
In synthesizing and evaluating the Ten Principles, pick one specific issue to provide concrete examples. You can consider laws related to child labor, immigration/refugee hiring policies and practices, ethics in the workforce, corporate ethics, corporate social responsibility mandates, or corporate humanitarian activism/service. There are definitely other topics that could fit in this category, so you can certainly explore the possibilities.
You will need to develop a strong thesis to guide your discussion of the Ten Principles. It will be important to support your thesis with examples exploring the specific issue that you focus on. Recognize that there is no easy answer to this specific question.
